Identification
[edit]Identification is hard, as there were a series of similar ships, and there aren't many photos to compare (and this one does not show the entire ship). The Donggala, Menggala, and Indragiri all seem to be very similar ships, but there is one detail (the cylindrical pads on the horizontal bar under the lifeboat) that is in a photo of the Kalmoa that I did not see on the photos of the others. But, it's hard to say if details like that would change over time, so the identification is a bit tentative. Carl Lindberg (talk) 14:17, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
